The Ribbon is designed to help an Aptify user quickly and easily access Aptify features and functionality. The Aptify Ribbon replaces many of the menus and toolbars that were part of previous versions of Aptify.
The Ribbon is made up of tabs that correspond to a user's subscribed applications. Each tab includes tasks grouped together by the services in that application to which the user has subscribed.
Ribbon Bar 
As with the Folder List and Shortcut Bar, a user can choose to minimize the ribbon to provide more available space on the Aptify desktop. This is done by selecting the Minimize the Ribbon option from the Quick Access Toolbar. Aptify respects the user's preference and the ribbon remains minimized across future sessions.

Note Concerning Default Ribbon State: By default the ribbon bar for all users is at full size. However, an administrator can define the default state of a ribbon so it is minimized. See Defining the Default State of Ribbon Bar in the Aptify Application Administration topic of the Aptify Administration Guide for more details.
Minimize the Ribbon Option 
The Ribbon includes the following features:
- Home Tab
- Application Tab
- Service Groups
This section describes the default appearance of the Aptify Ribbon. However, an administrator can design new ribbon groups for Home or a particular application so the ribbon on your system may look different than what is shown in this section. See the Defining Application Ribbons section in the Aptify Application Administration chapter of the Aptify Administration Guide for more information.
